Placed as part of the Sandown Town Forest event.
'Oil Can' Boyd became part of our family about three years ago. We
adopted him from a local SPCA shelter. He was called Boyd, but we
made it more special by namimg him after a Red Sox pitcher.
Boyd was my caching buddy since I started caching in 2006. He
loved to go on hikes with me in the woods, and he really enjoyed
our outings in the Sandown Town Forest. Unfortunately, we had to
put him down this summer as cancer had spread through out his body.
I miss him a lot, and I place this cache in his memory.
Please do not park on Fremont Road. Please use the following
coordinates for parking: N 42° 56.469 W 071° 10.769. The town
conservation committee has readily agreed to allow caching in this
area—they only ask that we use the parking area off Fremont Road
and do not park on the road. A second possible entrance is off
Odell Rd. See cache GC1F36K for more information. There are
alternate ways to reach this area from the Rockingham Rail Trail.
There is access to the trail from Main Street in Sandown as well as
off Odell Road. There are numerous trails off the rail trail that
lead into the Town Forest. Please respect the wishes of our
conservation committee, and do not park on any part of Fremont Road
to access any of the caches in the Town Forest. Some of the caches
nearby include:
GC11VVG GC13W3X GC1F57I GC11VW1 GC1F56X GC1F36K
GC13W2G GC1F57A GC1D3P3 GC1F57N GC1FD2J GC1F36K
Please wear orange from September to December-hunters also use
these woods.

August 28 by LHC_DRat (2924 found) Explored the new Sandown Town Forest Trails today. Found after a short search. Didn't see a TB in the cache. Took a rubber ball and left a golf ball.
